How does the wattage of LED lamp compare with that of traditional lamp?

Wattage is power. How do you compare the power of LED and traditional fluorescent lamp?

I don't understand this question. Maybe you want to ask why LED lights save more electricity than traditional lights.

It's simple. Because the light efficiency of LED is high, the light efficiency of LED bulbs is at least 80lm/W, while that of fluorescent lamps is at most 60lm/w..

In the same room, in order to achieve the same brightness, LED and traditional fluorescent lamp must have the same lm number, such as 800lm.

Then the LED is 800÷80= 10W, and the traditional fluorescent lamp is 800 ÷ 60 =13.3333330w..

One more question. The light emitting angle of LED bulbs is generally 180 degrees, that is, the light emitted is downward, while the light emitting angle of fluorescent lamps is almost 360 degrees, so a part of light is wasted. Therefore, to achieve the same 800lm, the power of fluorescent lamps needs to be greater than13.3333 W.
